  1. I had a great 4th, too. I dropped over to a friend's house and was invited to join their group as they made their way to the fireworks out at the local casino. Perfect summer evening, yet cool enough for a light jacket. Soft breeze blowing smoke from fireworks away from the crowd. 180 degree view of open skies & smaller fireworks being sent into the sky by people before the main event. The 'big' show was excellent and we had a great parking place. Show lasted 30-45 minutes. Terrific way to end the evening!


  2. 1. What drink wakes you up best in the morning?

    A fruit smoothy, tea, or water.

    2. During the day, what do you drink to keep going?

    Decaf tea and water on work days. Not at work? Cream of Earl Grey caffinated tea, water, and the occasional soda.

    3. Do you drink the recommended 8 glasses of water per day? Why/why not?

    Yes. I always have a glass of water nearby during the work day. Why? I believe the water helps keep me hydrated, thus keeps my systems functioning along smoothly. I miss the water if I don't have it.

    4. What are the ingredients of your favorite mixed drink? (Doesn't have to be alcoholic!)

    It's a fruit smoothie - whatever fruit is handy, protein powder, fruit juice.

    5. Are you a soda drinker? If yes, which soda is your favorite?

    An occasional soda drinker. I love Vernor's Ginger Ale and Vanilla Coke.


  3. Love 'em. One of my favorite 4 of Julys was spent with my sister's family when the kids were quite young. The fireworks started and the adults "oooo'd" and "ahhhh'd" along with the kids... The evening was really special because we also 'named' the fireworks as they exploded: Now that's a spectacular DoozyWopper! I love that SparkleShiner! etc. :)


  4. I don't diet, but here are things that make eating well a challenge:

    • cookies, (any kind I've made myself) PLUS Oreo Double Stuffs and the sugar cookies with frosting from LoftHouse - get 'em at your supermarket
    • tea, a pot of caffinated Teavana Earl Grey Creme and I don't need food (except cookies)
    • holidays that have food attached: Christmas, Thanksgiving, etc.
    • restaurant food. the portions are huge!
    • candy bars and ice cream and desserts
    • butter, lucious butter

    I believe I could have dedicated the entire list to specific cookies! :003:


  5. This past week was good. It started out with a good friend and I having breakfast and walking the beaches of Lake Erie, moved on to TPATH with my sister and niece, then returned to work - which was easy and productive this week. Yesterday I worked around the house, did laundry, bought a new bedspread ensemble. I joined BookMooch and already have 5 books to send out to people. Good week!


  6. Not a bad mix. I listened for a bit this morning. It seems like every 3rd song is written by TP and includes some album deep cuts:

    Breakdown - TPATH

    Dani California - Red Hot Chili Peppers

    All Right Now - Free

    All My love - Led Zeppelin

    Finding Out - TPATH

    3AM - Matchbox Twenty

    Til I Hear It From You - Gin Blossoms

    Life Is A Highway - Tom Cochrane

    Lyin' Eyes - The Eagles

    This Old Town - TP


  7. 1. Last party you went to? Boring Christmas party at the boss's house.

    2. Do you sing in the shower? No way!

    3. Have you ever fired a gun? Nope.

    4. Where do you call home? Mount Pleasant, Michigan -- at least right now.

    5. What's your favorite board game? Lifestories, where you share stories with fellow players and everyone wins.
